Tasting Notes
Colour
deep amber
air Nose
a superb balance, with lots of sherry and Port Ellen’s usual peat and new tyre aromas that do mix perfectly well here. Notes of cooked strawberries, all sorts of dried fruits, raisins and a big smoky blast – of the subtle kind, if that’s possible. A great surprise
restaurant Palate
creamy, oily, smoky and sherried. Again a perfect balance even if it’s not overly complex. Quite fresh and clean, with very little ‘burnt’ notes. Long finish, with something slightly metallic and ‘stony’ – in a very nice way. No monster but a very good sherried Port Ellen, perfectly balanced and extremely enjoyable. 90 points . Port Ellen 1969 (40%, G&M Connoisseur’s Choice old brown label, ca 1985)
